Snapdragon Potomac White
Snapdragon Potomac White, in Latin Antirrhinum majus, is an annual that will win you over with its elegance and a rich flood of pure white flowers. It originally comes from the sunny Mediterranean, which is why it thrives in full sun in the garden. From tiny seeds sown between January and August or in December, upright stems grow to a height of sixty to one hundred and fifty centimeters. Due to its height, the plant needs support against the wind. The white flowers bring lightness to the flowerbeds and soften the bolder colors of other plants. The snapdragon is a great attraction for bees and bumblebees, who love to dive into its deep calyxes. Potomac White is excellent for cutting into summer and autumn bouquets. The long, sturdy stems add a festive vertical structure to any arrangement and last a long time fresh in a vase. It is not suitable for drying, but thanks to the possibility of growing it in a polytunnel, it will bring you joy with fresh flowers from spring to autumn.

Cultivation
SOWING
For snapdragons, we always recommend pre-growing the seedlings; direct sowing will not work.
Snapdragon seeds are tiny, so prepare for meticulous work. Sow on the surface of the substrate and do not cover, as snapdragon needs light to germinate. We emphasize not covering the seeds with anything, not even a layer of vermiculite.
Keep the seedling tray at a temperature of 16 - 20 °C.
Snapdragon seeds are tiny, so until they grow into proper seedlings, it is necessary to water only from the bottom, by placing the seedling tray in a bowl of water and letting the water wick up. You can also water from above, but use only the finest misting, otherwise, you will wash the sown seeds away.
Under ideal conditions, the snapdragon will germinate in 4 - 7 days and will spend 4 - 5 weeks in the seedling tray before growing into a proper seedling. Snapdragons can go straight from the seedling tray into the flower bed; there is no need to transplant them into a larger seedling tray or into small pots. We recommend only hardening off the seedlings so they get used to outdoor conditions and strengthen a bit.
PLANTING
Snapdragon seedlings can withstand light frosts (- 6 °C), so don't be afraid to plant them even before the last frosts; they will handle it. We plant at a spacing of 15 × 15 cm.
We do not pinch snapdragons. One seedling will create one solid stem and several side stems for you, so they will branch out naturally.
Snapdragons can also be grown at a more intensive spacing (40 - 65 plants per m2, or even 65 - 105 plants per m2), but there we risk fungal diseases appearing on them. So it is better to give them more space.
CULTIVATION
Snapdragons thrive in humous soil; before planting, you can incorporate mature compost into the beds. Choose a sunny location for them.
It is ideal to water snapdragons at the roots so the leaves remain dry. This will prevent various fungal diseases that can plague snapdragons. Maintain regular watering for snapdragons and don't forget to fertilize regularly. Once the snapdragons start to bloom, you can reduce the watering.
SUPPORT
If you are a professional and grow snapdragons for cutting, we recommend a support, specifically a net, through which the snapdragons will grow. Without support, it can otherwise happen that the stems will be bent and otherwise twisted. For beautifully straight stems, a net is a necessity.
SNAPDRAGON GROUPS
Snapdragons are divided into 4 groups, group 1 being the earliest and group 4 the latest. You can therefore sow and plant group 1 first, as it will bloom even at a lower temperature and shorter days. While you prefer to leave group 4 until the end of the summer.
In our offer, snapdragons are in these groups:
Group 1 - 2
Maryland, Costa, Frappe, Snapstar
Group 3 - 4
Potomac, Madame Butterfly
The information given is based on our experience, please use it as a guide only. Times may vary depending on the season, climate, location, sowing and transplanting dates and possibly also the conditions in the greenhouse/greenhouse. We always recommend testing how the plant performs in your conditions. Please do not take this as a guarantee.
Instructions inside the seed packet
You can find full instructions inside each seed packet, covering everything from sowing to harvesting.
Seeds arrive in a handy box
You can use the box to store seeds, so when it's time to sow, you have everything ready.
Seed packets can be easily organized
Each seed packet features a colored label with a photo of the species, as well as its common and Latin names.
Pelleted seeds can be found in ampoules
The smallest seeds are pelleted to make them easier to work with. The pelleted seeds can be found in a plastic ampoule inside the package.
Sow the entire packet of seeds
Number of seeds ≠ number of plants. It is necessary to take into account that not every seed will germinate. You may lose some seedlings during cultivation. We recommend buying and sowing more seeds than you need seedlings.
Find the current germination rate on the website
We test seed germination every 6 months. You can always find the current germination rate on our website.

Cornflower Tall Double Blue Boy
The blue cornflower is an absolute classic of our fields and meadows, which probably needs no lengthy introduction. However, the 'Tall Double Blue Boy' variety brings something extra. Compared to its wild relatives that we see along roads, it boasts rich flowers in an unmistakable, deep blue shade, sometimes with a purple tone. You can hardly imagine anything more meadow-like. Thanks to its strong stems growing up to eighty centimeters tall, this annual is perfectly suited for cutting, adding true rustic charm to bouquets. But its use doesn't end in the vase. The flowers keep their fantastic color even after drying!
At weddings, we loved using them in flower crowns and corsages, where they have excellent stamina!
The petals are edible. They serve perfectly as an original garnish for summer salads, desserts, or festive cakes. Moreover, in the garden, it functions as a reliable magnet for bees and bumblebees, who simply go crazy for its nectar.

Saponaria vaccaria
Vaccaria Pink Beauty
Saponaria vaccaria, or cow soapwort 'Pink Beauty', is a reliable annual that brings a romantic and airy element to summer flower beds. It easily makes up for its unconventional name with a rich profusion of tiny, pastel-pink flowers that bring a sense of lightness to the garden. These appear on sturdy stems sixty to ninety centimeters tall during the summer months, from June to September. The delicate flowers not only look beautiful and soften the surrounding plantings, but they also act as a magnet for bees, butterflies, and other pollinators, which will naturally enliven your garden. For healthy growth, cow soapwort appreciates a bright location, but it can grow in light shade without any problems.
It looks very elegant in the garden, and thanks to its structure—reminiscent of baby's breath—it combines perfectly with more robust types of flowers, for which it makes a delicate background. You can confidently cut three to four richly branched stems from each plant. They will bring great joy even if you simply place them in small vases in your living room. Cow soapwort grows and blooms very quickly from seeds, which in practice means that it also fades a bit faster. If you want to enjoy its delicate pink flowers in the bed and in the vase for as long as possible, it is worth sowing the seeds in stages. You can perform direct sowing from February to May in several consecutive phases. Even complete beginners can thus have fresh cut flowers available throughout the season.

Everyone knows classic field cornflowers, but the 'Tall Double Red Boy' variety brings a completely different spectacle to the garden.

The raspberry cornflower stands out best in natural-looking flower beds, where it pairs perfectly with ornamental grasses, daisies, or white-flowering annuals. Throughout the summer, it serves as a plentiful feast for bees and bumblebees. Lovers of fresh arrangements love using it in colorful summer bouquets, where its unconventional color immediately catches everyone's eye.

In the garden, they form beautiful combinations with delicate ornamental grasses or other annuals in similar tones. Zinnia also acts as a reliable magnet for bees, bumblebees, and butterflies.

The path to your own flowers begins with seeds, which are easy to work with and provide quick results. Ideally, start the sunflower seeds by pre-growing them in the warmth for one to two weeks. Covered seeds will germinate in five to ten days. Then, transplant them into sun or partial shade. You can repeat sowings from April to August, which will cause them to bloom gradually from July to autumn. Do not pinch the plants, but provide support for straight stems. Fresh flowers last a long time in a vase and will delight lovers of clean bouquets.

Cornflower Tall Double Black Boy
It is hard to imagine anything more rustic. The 'Tall Double Black Boy' variety is a much fuller-flowered Cornflower than the one we commonly see along roadsides and hedgerows. It is a truly extraordinary piece, with a color that transitions from dark burgundy and plum to almost black. It grows to a height of sixty to eighty centimeters, so it appreciates support in the flower bed to prevent its thin stems from breaking. Seeds from spring or autumn sowings germinate very readily within five to ten days. It is best to sow them directly in a sunny or semi-shaded location. The flowers appear in the summer months from June to August and become a huge attraction for bees, bumblebees, and butterflies. You will appreciate the Cornflower in naturalistic gardens alongside other annuals. It is absolutely great for cutting into vases, and its flowers also retain their shape and color when dried.

The 'QIS White' cultivar stands out with pure white flowers that densely cover long, straight stems. These can grow up to one hundred and twenty centimeters in height, creating an interesting layer in the flower bed and adding airiness to the space.

These are wonderful spring beauties that are hard to beat at the turn of spring and summer. They are very easy to grow from seeds and pose no major challenge for beginners. In floristry, they are suitable for wedding bouquets and for drying. For a perfect cut, you must be quick and harvest the stems before all the buds have fully opened. We recommend sowing the seeds gradually at two-week intervals during the spring or at the end of summer so you can enjoy the beauty of these flowers for as long as possible.

Cosmos Rosetta
Cosmos 'Rosetta' is one of our favorite annuals. Its shape resembles a large daisy, but its flowers shine in shades of dark and light pink that look like they were painted with delicate brushstrokes. It originates naturally from the sunny regions of America, and here, it thrives best in a bright location. As it is a low-maintenance plant, growing it from seeds is easy even for beginners. You can sow the seeds indoors on a windowsill starting in April, or directly into a spot in the flower bed from May to July. Germination takes only a few days. It grows to a height of about one meter, forms beautifully sturdy stems, and blooms from June until October, constantly attracting bees and butterflies. In the garden, it is an excellent addition to mixed borders. If you enjoy creating bouquets, 'Rosetta' will thrill you as a cut flower. From a single plant, you will gradually get at least twelve strong stems for the vase.
